Tenant stole from me - Possible recourse?

[Ben Kirchner]

Add this to the stories of nightmare tenants...

My tenant was late on rent payments month after month. She ends up writing two bad checks in July, and not paying at all in August, then blocking my phone number. I evict her. Court ordered her to be out by 9/5/17.

She is now out, but so are my appliances. Refrigerator, washer, and dryer are all gone. Walls are dirty and scuffed, floors are dirty, trash is spread throughout the house. I filed a police report of the missing appliances. However, I'm guessing she threw them on craigslist and sold them. I don't imagine she would go through the trouble of transporting them to a pawn shop, or dumb enough to put them in her new residence. Therefore, I'm going to be left paying the deductible for my home insurance to replace the items. Is there any other recourse of action that can be taken? I'm curious to what the police can/will do in the event they don't catch her red handed with the appliances in her new residence?

Missed 2 months rent, paid a property manager twice to find a tenant for the house, spending money to deep clean the place, repaint, have carpets cleaned, replace lights, etc...  Now add replacing refrigerator, washer, and dryer to the list.  This is my nightmare tenant story.
